Photographing the "Phantoms of the Living": The Fotodinamismo Futurista of Anton Giulio and Arturo Bragaglia, 1911-1913Barth, Rachel 17 June 2014 (has links)
Between 1911 and 1913, two Italian brothers named Anton Giulio Bragaglia and Arturo Bragaglia produced Futurist photography which they termed "photodynamism." These images, together with the theoretical manifesto Fotodinamismo futurista, represent a remarkable effort in avant-garde photography and theory in the early 20th century. The Bragaglias' intent in making these photographs was to produce deeply emotional images of modern dynamic motion which convey the spiritual essence of human beings that becomes exteriorized in the process of physical movement.
Through a short, intense campaign in 1913, Umberto Boccioni succeeded in expelling the Bragaglias from the Futurist movement. Because of this, the importance of their photography has often been neglected, underrepresented or misrepresented in scholarship. This thesis offers an alternative reading of the photodynamic project based on its occult foundation and a better sense of how to understand photodynamism within the context of the movement and the broader history of photography.

Giovanni Papini iconoclasta e religioso: diferentes fases da recepção do escritor florentino no Brasil / Giovanni Papini the iconoclast and the religious: different stages of the Florentine writers reception in BrazilSilva, Aline Fogaça dos Santos Reis e 05 December 2017 (has links)
A trajetória literária de Giovanni Papini pode ser dividida em duas fases: a iconoclasta e a católica. A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo o exame da recepção do escritor florentino no Brasil, por meio de suas obras traduzidas para o português norma brasileira e pelo mapeamento de notas, resenhas, crônicas e artigos publicados em alguns dos principais periódicos nacionais. Em um primeiro momento, ele é lido e discutido, especialmente pelos intelectuais modernistas, no embate entre futurismo italiano e modernismo brasileiro; em um segundo, pelo viés da tradução, principalmente através das obras de temática religiosa. Como fundamentação teórica da análise, são abordados conceitos relacionados aos estudos da tradução, como polissistema literário, mecenato, reescrita e gatekeeping, desenvolvidos nos estudos de Itamar Even-Zohar, André Lefevere e Susan Bassnett. De igual forma, as relações que se estabelecem entre escritor e público-leitor são pensadas sob a perspectiva das teorias da estética da recepção relacionadas à história e à sociologia da literatura, nos estudos de Hans Robert Jauss e Regina Zilberman. / The literary career of Giovanni Papini can be divided into two phases: the iconoclast and the catholic. The present research aims to test the reception of the Florentine writer in Brazil, through his works translated into Brazilian Portuguese and by the survey of notes, reviews, short stories and articles published in some of the major national newspapers. In the beginning, he is read and discussed, especially by modernist intellectuals, in the clash between Italian Futurism and Brazilian Modernism; later, through the translation approach, mainly by religious themed works. As the theoretical foundation of the analysis, concepts relating to translation studies are discussed, as literary polysystem, patronage, rewritten and gatekeeping, developed in the studies of Itamar Even-Zohar, André Lefevere and Susan Bassnett. Similarly, relations that are established between writer and readers are thought from the perspective of the theories of aesthetics of reception related to the History and Sociology of Literature, in the studies of Hans Robert Jauss and Regina Zilberman.

Warfare by other means : the rhetoric of war and sport in the twentieth centuryZetter, Nathaniel Mark January 2019 (has links)
This thesis identifies the existence and significance of a rhetorical gesture that has circulated widely since at least the nineteenth century: the comparison between war and sport. The introduction outlines the background for this rhetoric through a genealogy of the phrase, 'the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton', in nineteenth-century writing. Part one of the thesis examines the metaphors and cultural practices of energetics in European sporting life until the Second World War. The first chapter presents a cultural history of 'sporting aviation' between the Wright brothers' first European flight in 1908 and the declaration of war in 1914, arguing that the new technology of the aeroplane was initially understood through a tension between sporting and bellicose associations. The second chapter performs a close analysis of F.T. Marinetti's writings and Umberto Boccioni's paintings to reveal the role of sport in Italian Futurism and its significance for our understanding of its infamous glorification of warfare. Chapter three examines the militarist displays at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin and their enduring cultural legacy. Focusing on the role of crowds, rhythm is shown to be at the centre of how martial symbolism was embedded in the Games' sporting displays. Framing the transition into part two, the fourth chapter reads Georges Perec's use of the Olympics as an allegory for both the Second World War and the Holocaust in W, or the Memory of Childhood (1975) beside a number of post-war conceptualisations of 'play' and 'game'. The chapter identifies a re-organisation of the play concept according to an emerging concern with information, one which, in Perec, also articulates an alternative register for war's cultural memory. From here, the thesis' second part identifies the emergence of a metaphorical nexus of computation, war, and sport in post-war American culture. Chapter five argues that Don DeLillo's End Zone (1972) and David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest (1996) satirise the logic of nuclear strategy by employing the formal properties of information theory in their language, collapsing the distinctions between war and sport when each is subjected to computational representation. The final chapter analyses the 'military shooter' videogame, and the new form of sport it has produced - 'e-sports' - considering these games as a material instantiation of the convergence between the discourses of military and sporting culture. Across the case studies presented in these six chapters, a transition is identified from metaphors concerned with war and sport's energetic qualities to those concerned with the processing and abstraction of war and sport as information. Rather than conceive of this transition as an epistemic break, however, the thesis identifies continuities across the principles to be found in cultural energetics and informatics.
